graduation - weglobe lyrics

[intro]
to everyone who made it here…
through the pain, through the doubt, through the nights you almost gave up…
this is your moment
you graduated

[verse 1]
i walked through the fire, came out refined
every single scar is a story, every story’s mine
they said i wouldn’t make it, said i’d fall apart
but i took the broken pieces and i made them art
look at me now, standing where i said i’d be
not because it’s easy, ’cause i refused to leave
the dream on the table, the hope on the floor
i picked it up, dusted it off, and i built something more
this is for the version of me that cried in the dark
who didn’t know if morning would ever restart
the sun in his chest, the fire in his soul
i’m here to tell you, young one, you made it whole
we made it whole, we graduated
every lesson that i hated, i’m grateful that i faced it
’cause the curriculum was custom, designed for my growth
and i passed every test even when i didn’t know

[pre*chorus]
this isn’t the end, it’s the beginning
i’m not just surviving, i’m finally winning
not trophies, not awards, not external validation
just peace in my soul, that’s the real graduation
[chorus]
we made it through the curriculum (we made it)
the pain was the premium (worth the cost)
but look at us now (look at us now)
graduated, millennium
throw your caps in the sky (throw ’em up)
we earned the right to fly (we earned it)
don’t be dumb, don’t be dumb (never again)
look what we’ve become (look at us now)

[verse 2]
four years in the school of hard knocks, no diploma
just calluses on my heart and a new persona
built from the ash of who i used to be
a phoenix in the flesh, can you see what i see?
i see a survivor, i see a warrior
i see someone who turned their pain into something superior
not better than others, better than before
that’s the only competition, even the score
remember self*sabotage? i passed that class
remember fumbled the bag? i got it back
remember know better? now i finally do
remember late bloomer? look, i bloomed right through
the concrete, the doubt, the ceiling they set
i burst through every single one, no regrets
and yeah, i apologized to myself, made peace
now i walk in wisdom and my soul’s released
[pre*chorus]
this isn’t the end, it’s the beginning
i’m not just surviving, i’m finally winning
not money, not fame, not what they’re giving
just joy in my veins, that’s the real living

[chorus]
we made it through the curriculum (all of it)
the pain was the premium (every tear)
but look at us now (just look)
graduated, millennium
throw your caps in the sky (sky high)
we earned the right to fly (finally)
don’t be dumb, don’t be dumb (lesson learned)
look what we’ve become (we made it)

[bridge]
to the class of right now
the ones who enrolled in life with no map
who took the tests they didn’t study for
and passed anyway
to the ones who failed and came back
who repeated the grade until the lesson stuck
who cheated themselves out of blessings
then learned to bless themselves
(choir hums softly, strings creep back in)
you are not your gpa
not your mistakes
not your timeline
not your fumbles
you are the sum of every time you got back up
and that sum?
is infinite
(beat builds, drums return)
[verse]
so here i stand, diploma in my hand
not paper, but peace—you understand?
i graduated from the school of my own worst enemy
now i’m my own best friend, that’s the new energy
i’m walking across the stage of my own existence
shaking hands with the me who had the persistence
to keep going, keep growing, keep showing
up for myself even when the wind wasn’t blowing
in my favor
i’m the valedictorian of my own survival
the student and the teacher at my own revival
and if you’re listening to this and you’re still in the trenches
still taking the tests, still sitting on benches
waiting for your name to be called
just know—you’re closer than you think
you’re about to walk

[chorus]
we made it through the curriculum (we’re here)
the pain was the premium (it was worth it)
but look at us now (standing tall)
graduated, millennium (finally)
throw your caps in the sky (let ’em fly)
we earned the right to fly (we did it)
don’t be dumb, don’t be dumb (never forget)
look what we’ve become

[outro]
to everyone who stuck with me through this album
through the self*sabotage, the fumbles, the late nights
the apologies, the wisdom, the waiting…
thank you for graduating with me
but remember…
graduation isn’t the end of learning
it’s just the end of one chapter
the next semester starts tomorrow
new lessons. new tests. new growth
but now?
now you know you can pass
because you already did
